That old white haired judge in Dallas |
|
Didn't pay my story no mind |
|
They're takin' me down to Huntsville |
|
I'm bringin' in a load of time |
|
They caught me on a caper that I planned for days |
|
And proved everything I done |
|
I'm on my way to Huntsville |
|
Bt I'm looking for a chance to run |
|
My hands don't fit no choppin' pole |
|
And cotton never was my beg |
|
The men better keep both eyes on me |
|
Or they're gonna lose old Hag |
|
Hey there ain't so far to Mexico |
|
There I can find my way |
|
They're takin' me down to Huntsville |
|
But I'm not gonna stay |
|
They got me chain and leg irons |
|
I guess they got a good excuse |
|
They know I'm gonna run the first chance |
|
I get cause they never gonna cut me loose |
|
And I really don't care if they shoot me down |
|
I'll never be free again |
|
I've got two long life turns to do |
|
Both runnin' in the end |
|
Hey there ain't so far to Mexico |
|
There I can find my way |
|
They're takin' me down to Huntsville |
|
But I'm not gonna stay |
